A prominent figure in the early church, Augustine (354–430), is credited with reflecting on the Trinity one day while strolling along the ocean's edge.
The Trinity cannot be thoroughly dissected under the lens of human mind or within the confines of logic. But that doesn't prove that theologians came up with the concept. It is merely articulating what the Bible teaches (Jn. 10:29–30; Acts 5:3–4) to say that the one and only God has revealed Himself as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—three distinct but not separate individuals.
It only seems to reason that the One we adore and to whom we dedicate our life must be much greater than our finite understanding of Him.
The mind is stunned by the reality of a triune God, but the heart is satisfied by knowing Him.
Holy Spirit, Son, and Father,
Blessed Trinity, thou art
Essentially, there are three people—
You are God, and we reverence you.
